Watch Redcliffe Talks #3: The North Porch


Discover the fascinating history of the North Porch at St Mary Redcliffe Church.


One of only three extant medieval porches to have been built on a hexagonal ground plan, the North Porch at St Mary Redcliffe stands out from the crowd. In the third Redckliffe Talk,  writer and academic Dr Helen Lunnon printed a talk on the two North Porches (inner and outer) and their medieval contexts.


Below is a video presentation based on the talk that has been prepared by Dr Lunnon.
